Cricket’s Creed Lyrics by Sam Doores, Riley Downing, The Tumbleweeds

Holy Cross Blues

2012

[Verse 1]
Let me lay down my head in your green grassy meadows
Time passes this way
Got my gaze to your clouds as they cast their shadows
The long motions of your day
[Verse 2]
And let me drink tears tricklin' down from your canyons
Some time might pass that way
Let me walk down the highway wherever it rolls
And I'll just go that way
[Verse 3]
Let me blow in the wind, wherever it flows
Yes, when I must blow away
And let my brothers and my sisters stop swimmin' upstream
They don't know what they're givin' away
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Well, I ain't got much gold, all you see is all I own
But I reckon I like it that way
And when the chilly winds, I get prеtty cold
When I don't have a place to stay
[Verse 5]
But thе nighttime crickets leap through the shadows
And I watch 'em unfurl the clay
As their slender legs whisper, "Come close and listen"
Some time might pass this way
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 6]
So let our hands touch the moss in the shade of your trees
Time might pass that way
Let our eyes bring the moon straight down to its knees
Till it bows into the day
[Verse 7]
Well, the sky looks like rain, that's what I need
For to wash my mind away
And there ain't nothin' more sacred than a cricket's creed
Rattlin' down from its slender legs
